Dionte Christmas has signed with Hapoel Holon of Israel, according to Marc J. Spears of ESPN.

While Christmas was a successful player in college, he hasn't enjoyed that success in the NBA and will now head overseas to attempt to continue his career. He can be ignored for fantasy purposes. Tue, Dec 1, 2015 09:40:00 AM

He was a great scorer at Temple, but it hasn't translated to the NBA yet. Christmas may have to play overseas. Fri, Oct 23, 2015 04:18:00 PM

Dionte Christmas passed his physical and signed with the Cavaliers on Saturday.

Christmas' chances of making the final roster are very slim and it doesn't help that Jared Cunningham has made a serious case for the Cavs to keep him. Christmas is not going to be an option in fantasy leagues regardless of what happens. Sat, Oct 10, 2015 12:48:00 PM

Depth Charts

Jerryd Bayless (wrist) will not play against the Pelicans on Thursday.

He didn't even travel with the team. The 76ers were listing Bayless as questionable last week for his wrist soreness, but they're ruling him out early for every game so far this week. Sergio Rodriguez will continue to start and get the lion's share of the PG minutes, so he's a hold in standard leagues until Bayless gets back on the court. T.J. McConnell will get the backup minutes.

76ers head coach said the team is committed to using Ben Simmons (foot) as their point guard once he's ready to return.

Simmons is targeting a January return and Brown said the team will waste no time putting the ball in his hands once he's healthy. "When he’s ready to go to the court, my intention is to give him the ball and let him be the point guard," Brown said. "That’s the plan. That doesn’t just happen. It takes a little bit of time to introduce him." While Simmons is an intriguing stash, he's likely to have his minutes managed upon his return and is tough to roster in standard leagues.

Jahlil Okafor (gastroenteritis) has officially been ruled out for Thursday's game vs. New Orleans.

He remained home in Philly as he recovers from his illness. Okafor's next chance to play will be on Saturday vs. Detroit. Joel Embiid will play 28 minutes on Thursday with Richaun Holmes backing him up.
